Hello,My name is ***** ***** I will be assisting you with your question.Generally, the last place in the world that a person should go once he is already charged with a crime is to the police. That's because you are a defendant and you should never talk to the other side when your case is pending. Anything you say, even what you think is helpful to your case, can be used against you. Also, since the state believes your boyfriend and has already charged you, they are unlikely to believe your version of the same incident, even with your evidence and even if they talked to your son. Sons have been known to lie for their parents.You need a local lawyer to help you fight your case and also to guide you in any dealings you will have with CPS. Getting one should be your first priority. Once you get him or her, let your lawyer see the texts and threats your boyfriend made and let your lawyer talk to your son. Your lawyer can convey information about that to the prosecutor and the DA would be obligated to look into that. Or, if your lawyer feels you should go to the police, he can go with you so that your rights and your son's rights are protected.
